Psalm 139 and John 3:16 were inspiration for this poem; I also recall lyrics from a song my godsister, Kari Shipman, wrote that hold the same message.<\/p>\n
\u201cDo you know My love for you?\u201d (#38)<\/p>\n
The eternal God speaks in my heart and asks me, \u201cDo you know how much love
\nThat I have for you, My son?\u201d in a voice powerful and yet soft as the call of a dove.
\nHe says, \u201cIf I wrote a song to express it, it would be impossible to play for any human band.
\nIt would go on forever-my thoughts about you are more numerous than the number of grains of sand.
\nI love you so much, that My Son was willing to die on the cross so that you could live; and here is why:
\nI chose you to be Mine before time began, and I wish for you to be Mine for all eternity.
\nBut for that to be possible, you must decide which love is more important to you-for the world, or for Me.
\nIf you love Me, you will obey My commands, and love Me enough to give up your life.
\nYou can be a witness to the world, standing up for your faith, and trusting in Me when threatened with the blade of a knife.
\nIn a healthy relationship, love should flow both ways-as between a father and his son.
\nI love you so much; will you love Me until all is said and done?\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
